In our everyday lives, people who fulfil their everyday tasks out of love for Christ, are held in His care, close to Him, helped to grow in holiness by their Communion with Him.They are becoming ready to live one day as Saints, with the Father in Heaven.

Through Christ, at every Mass, we share in His praise of the Father, and are brought into the presence of the whole company of Heaven. It is tragic if we show little gratitude or devotion.

No one achieves sanctity by looking timidly at the waters of holiness, or trying to remain on the surface. It is the Saints, who believe that the water can support them, and who want to accept Christ's invitation, who plunge in, experience transformation, and persevere. With a special diet, and with courage, training and good instruction they become champion swimmers.

Christ longs for all the People from whom He was born to realise that He is the One promised by the Prophets. Jesus, son of Mary, is the Messiah: the Holy One of God, Who longs for everyone to follow His way. There is no group or nation that can be ignored as we share the Good News of Christ by proclamation, with joy. Dialogue is not enough.

A mother with a seriously-sick child keeps loving her. She would do nothing to harm her. She would not kill her, however - just as God does not kill the people He loves, even when they have freely chosen to abandon Him, hate Him, and then find themselves in Hell, suffering from the absence of light and love.

Christ asked me to say to other people: "If you could see Jesus in the sanctuary, watching you, as you come in, would you make better genuflections?" Christ is Present in every Catholic church, surrounded by His holy Angels, as people who say they love Him ignore His Presence and even chatter at length.

People who believe in the words of Jesus about the Holy Eucharist behave as people should behave towards their God and Saviour, Really Present under the appearance of Bread. They approached with love, awe and reverence.

Our Blessed Lady's whole desire is to give glory to her Father, just as Jesus Christ her Son has always done. She invites us to do the same, though she is saddened to see how little respect is paid to Christ their Divine Saviour, Really Present in the Mass, and in the tabernacle.

As we hope to end our lives with Jesus forever, the Christian journey is like a walk across the Sea of Galilee on a path of stepping-stones: quite safe as long as no-one trips. A person determined to reach the other side would be wise to have someone near her to 'put out a hand' if she should trip and be in danger of falling.

When God allows us to endure suffering, we must remember that He can bring good out of every evil, including sickness. We please Him if we refrain from complaining when things are painful or inconvenient. By patience we respect the Father's Will and imitate Christ in His obedience.

Even many Catholics grumble and complain when they are asked to bear things which are painful or inconvenient. This shows a lack of understanding, or a lack of love for the Will of the Father, Who invites us to imitate the patience and trust of His Son.

Where people build modern towns, and good housing, they sometimes become proud of their achievements. But the best test of a modern community is to see how it treats its poorest and most helpless members. Of what use is a modern street to a disabled person who cannot cross a high kerb?

Those souls who live as Catholics but who never use the Sacraments of Penance are like people who never wash or clean their teeth but who imagine that they are pleasant to be with. Souls not properly purified stink before Heaven.

Everyone needs to be 'cleansed' of all sin. Christ asked me to picture people who never wash or clean their teeth, and who grow dirty and smelly, and often infected. People who refuse to repent or to confess their sins, He said, are deeply loved by the Father, but they stink, before Heaven, and would be wise to accept the help He offers for their transformation and joy.

Some people say it is wrong to request clarity in doctrine or to criticize the words of dissenters in the Church. Truth sets us free, however. Heresy and dissent needs to be uncovered, so that people are not led astray, their souls endangered - just as a doctor is being kind when he tells a patient that he has discovered an undiscovered wound. Only by speaking about a wound can he gain consent to cure it, restoring the patient to health.
